US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has stated that Washington is 'not concerned' about reports suggesting Russia is supplying Iran with intelligence regarding troop positions and movements in the region.
In an interview with CBS's '60 Minutes', Hegseth declined to officially confirm the reports but maintained that the military is fully apprised of the situation.
He noted that the US is 'tracking everything' and ensuring that such data is factored into current battle strategies.
Hegseth emphasised the strength of the nation's surveillance capabilities, asserting that 'Our commanders are aware of everything.'
Addressing potential threats to US personnel arising from these reports, Hegseth reassured the public that the administration is prepared to handle any intelligence leaks.
He warned that any illicit cooperation between foreign powers would meet a firm response from the US.
